' To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, GEORGE PLi-i'r'r, of Butte, in the county of Silver Bow and Territory of Montana, have invented a new and use ful Improvement in Rubber Clothing, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the annexed drawings, forming part of this specification.

The object of my invention is to provide a complete rubber suit of clothing capable of being easily put on and off, and at the same time fitting the person neatly and effectually keeping out the wet.

The invention consists of the construction hereinafter described and claimed.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a front view 'of my improved waterproof suit. Fig. 2 is a section on line as w of Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is a view, partially broken away, showing part of the inner rear surface of the coat and trousers and means for connecting them together.

The suit consists of the combined boots and trousers A and the coat B. The uppers G of the boots are cut separately from the trousers, and united thereto by a seam, D, the bottoms of the trousers at the rear forming the hinder parts of the boots. The opening at the front of the trousers is provided with an inner and an outer set of flies, in order to exclude water in an effectual manner. The inner set consists of the flies E F, both of which are provided with buttons G and button-holes H, so arranged that either fly maylap over the other. The flies E F are secured inside the body of the trousers, being formed of distinct pieces. The outer set of flies,I J, are formed as integral parts of the body of the trousers, and are secured together by straps K and buckles L.

Each fly I and J is provided with such straps and buckles, in order that either fly may over- 40 lap the other. The coat B consists of a body or. waist, M. and a short skirt, N, having a spring similar to that of aladys basque. The coat opens in front, and has two sets of flies,

O P and Q R, an inner and an outer, similar 5 '1.
